Uni Cuisine - Stir fry

Stir fries are so easy to cook and only take about 5 minutes. And even though I'm giving you a recipe it can be changed in any way. I'm going to show you a chicken stir fry with a homemade sauce but you can use sauces in jars or sachets. Also you could use different meat like pork or beef, tofu or no meat at all and you can also use different vegetables or cook rice instead of noodles but just take its cooking time into account

Ingredients

1 large chicken breast

1 packet of ready to wok noodles

1 clove of garlic

1/2 red onion

1/3 bell pepper

a couple of baby sweetcorn

a couple of sugar snap peas or mange tout

a few florets of broccoli

2 carrots

3 or 4 mushrooms

oil

For the sauce (quantities to taste)

Mix all of these in a jug and keep tasting it

orange juice

dark soy sauce

peanut butter

tomato puree

Sweet chilli sauce

Method

Heat some oil in a wok and add onion and garlic

Add the chicken and keep stirring until its completely cooked through

Add the vegetables that take longer to cook like the sweetcorn, pepper, carrot

Add the other ingredients like the mushrooms, broccoli and mange tout

Wait until everything has cooked through and then add the noodles

After a minute or 2 add the sauce and cook for another 3 or 4 minutes and then serve
